Neighbourhood Priorities

Your beat team have seen an increase in calls reporting people are taking drugs or drinking alcohol within the tower blocks on the ST Peters Estate. This is corroborated by what your beat officers have witnessed. Your beat team have also highlighted people more at risk of allowing this or being taken advantage of within these blocks by drug dealers and drug users.

Issue Date Tuesday 9th April 2024

Officers have been on foot within the tower blocks to discourage this behaviour, this will continue short term, your beat teams medium term plan is to link in with Leicester City Council and the St Peters housing officers to prevent this area being targeted and to ensure all possible help from all three emergency services and housing is being offered to reduce vulnerability therefore reducing the impact on the community and resolving the issue.
